Washington D.C. (USA), August 2008 - Public-sector professionals in the Washington D.C. area who are tasked with developing human capital management strategies within their organizations will have the opportunity to learn about new trends in learning systems, career development models, and integrated performance management at this week's Cornerstone OnDemand Talent Management Reception.
The complimentary event, hosted by leading integrated talent management software and services provider Cornerstone OnDemand in partnership with the National Technical Information Service (NTIS), is being held Thursday, August 7 in the Phillips Ballroom at the Hotel Palomar from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m.
Leading talent-management-industry analyst Josh Bersin, president of Bersin & Associates, will be the keynote presenter, discussing the latest trends and best practices for the development of integrated human-capital strategies.
"With the pending retirement of baby boomers and a surge in the number of younger workers entering into public service, federal organizations are facing some of the most significant HR challenges in decades", observes Bersin. "With this flux in staffing, organizations not only need to build supervisory, technical, and leadership skills, they also need to create performance incentives and put more emphasis on career development. Organizations should take an integrated approach to their human capital strategy to address these issues successfully, as well as to create operational efficiencies and maximize their investments."
